Scale-down Ichthyosis suffering with Homeopathy

Ichthyosis is very rare skin disease. It is usually a congenital disorder which suggests it is present since birth. Ichthyosis is also found to be present in more than one member of the same family.

Ichthyosis appears on the skin as dry, rough and scaly markings resembling a fish skin. It is spread all over the body. The reason for the skin to become prone to such a condition is due to the decreased secretion by the skin glands and thickening of the skin cells, referred to as keratinization.

As it is a congenital disorder, Ichthyosis is noticed at birth and it gets worse during winter and the patient has little relief during warm and hot weather temporarily.

The most affected areas in patients with Ichthyosis are the back of the hands and legs, and the trunk portion of the body. This dryness of skin with fish-like scalings are bound to spread to entire skin in due course.

Ichthyosis patients cannot be left untreated as this condition is related to congenital conditions and there is poor defence mechanism in those patients. Therefore, Ichthyosis if not given prompt treatment can lead to Pyodermas, fungal affections and eczemas.

Sometimes , Ichthyosis condition appears in adult stage of life and other disease conditions such as Reticulosis, Leprosy and Allergy should be ruled out for the characteristic dryness and scaling of the skin.
